Story and Quirk
Bianca’s story begins with her parents, a famous Italian scoundrel and the Japanese investigator tasked with apprehending him.
Bianca’s father Cassio has the ability to make homogenous materials grow or shrink by stealing/giving its mass to nearby sources. As an example, if his pencil broke during a test, he could make his pencil graphite grow by “stealing” the graphite of another pencil nearby. He doesn’t need to know where the other pencil is, and he doesn’t need to touch either pencil, though it speeds up how fast he can grow/shrink the graphite. This quirk can be used to increase the size of thrown metal slightly, but it is best used to pull gold from the vaults of nearby banks.
Bianca’s mother Kimizuki has the quirk to switch the location of any two objects, but only if they have near-identical masses. She must know the location of both objects, and though she can translocations remotely with a mass error of 0.1%, touching one of the objects allows a mass disparity of 1%. Either at-will or after an hour the two objects switch back, though the villain’s/civilian’s replacement object can usually be secured within an hour. After months of cat-and-mouse, Kimizuki managed to learn Cassio’s weight and teleport him into handcuffs during one of his heists.
.
Because their affection had been growing with their flirting during their chase, Cassio was allowed to bypass his jail time by working with Kimizuki. He would steadily increase the mass of an object while Kimizuki repeatedly tried to trans locate it. Eventually, they were able to teleport villains into jail and civilians out of danger. They eventually married and had Bianca, but there was heavy backlash because people thought it was a “Quirk Marriage” between heroes and they were eventually targeted by the Italian mob due to Europe’s more harsh cue of quirk marriages. They weren’t a quirk marriage, though.
Since then, the parents have split for their child’s safety. Kimizuki travels the world as a secret agent and investigator, while Cassio has worked on deep-earth and even deep-space mining operations to collect precious metals from unreachable places. Bianca has lived alone most of her life, though Cassio’s Ferrari-driving supermodel little sister is always nearby to spoil her, and Kimizuki’s secret-agent baby brother is always nearby to reprimand her. They are a genderswapped extension of Bianca’s parents’ personalities, with the coddling scoundrel Italian and the strict straight-edge Japanese.
As a byproduct of her lavish and remote upbringing, Bianca is a bit of an air-head and doesn’t do well in school or hero activities when not taking direct orders. Given the nature of her quirk, Bianca is good at chemistry, physics, and math but is hopeless at anything else. Her Quirk is a mix of the strengths and limitations of her parents’ quirks. She can transfer mass between any two homogeneous substances of roughly similar composition. Unlike her father, the mass is compressed into the new object and neither object grows or shrinks. Additionally, the transition is nearly instantaneous like her mom instead of gradual like her dad. If Bianca makes one steel beam heavier and another lighter, the structural integrity of both might be affected.
.
Training to become a hero, Bianca arrived at the UA entrance exam with an air tank, a whimsical disposition, and no parental supervision. She compressed air all around her into her air tank to be able to jet-jump short distances, but she was super clumsy. She defeated all of her robots by concentrating off the the steel of the other robots into one of them, crushing the target robot under its own weight.
Her first year at UA was very tough. She didn’t know Japanese culture well because she had been homeschooled in a rural chateau. She couldn’t make many friends because of her forgetfulness and uselessness in training. Admitting her fate, she decided to reserve training arenas and work after school with anyone who help her train, be it teachers, upperclassmen, or her Ferrari Aunt/Secret Agent Uncle. With Power Loader, she learned to swing a sledge hammer and increase its mass the moment before it hit. In secret and apart from the other students, she developed her absurd costume.
Bianca showed up to a practice in a 200kg suit of lead armor. Through extensive training to decrease the amount of time she needs to transfer mass, she had created her own fighting style. Bianca would transfer the mass of the suit into a large lead plate on the ground, freeing herself to move around in a 2kg suit. When she punched someone, she would increase the mass in her fist the moment before she hit, then immediately remove the mass after the hit. Bianca used a sledgehammer to the same effect.
.
After shocking her peers by showing up to sparring practice in a giant suit of armor, Bianca gained popularity with some of the boys who thought she was cool, though most of the class thought she was even more weird than her original quiet-foreign-student persona. Though she now had enough mass than only the super-strength students could move her, and her hammer swings were an almost sure victory if they hit, her speed and combat ability was still just an average girl wearing some armor. She could not catch people who ran away, she had poor endurance, and she generally failed most tests that didn’t have to do with sheer force or defensiveness.
Since then, Bianca has worked extensively with Power Loader on a solution to her lack of maneuverability. They ended up drawing upon her entrance exam’s use of an air tank and air compression to achieve the desired effect. Now implemented into her forearm, shin, and back armor were small air tanks that allowed air out but not in. Now, while Bianca’s armor is of a decreased weight, she can give herself a jet boost as often as she can transfer mass into her air tank.
Speaking of “as often as she can...” Bianca worked hard to increase the magnitude and frequency of mass-transference. She could increase/decrease the mass of a substance 10,000x if she touches it and 1,000x if she cannot. She can now transfer mass every 0.2s to/from things she touches (her armor and hammer) and every 0.6s for things she can’t touch (the air in the tanks or a robot far away). With her new increased maximum, Bianca asked her father Cassio for a very peculiar birthday gift that only he could provide through probably illegal means.
.
Given his job in harvesting rare elements, Cassio is stupidly wealthy. He now steals Gold, Platinum, Tungsten, and Iridium from the earth’s crust and asteroids instead of from banks. He also has access to super-rare iridium stores, a metal that is practically immune to corrosive acid and high temperatures, and happens to be the densest metal known to man. Calling in some favors, Cassio granted his daughter’s peculiar wish for a couple dozen tons of the stuff.
Bianca’s new mass-transfer limits were only 10x more than they used to be, and she could only transfer 3x as often. Given this increase, though, she created, with help, a suit of hyperdense iridium armor weighing in at 5 tons, though to her it only feels like 5kg. Her suit’s mass isn’t limited by weight, but rather by the point that the overlapping plates start impeding her range of motion. She can carry with her a giant block of iridium that weighs several tons and makes her look like a worker ant carrying home food, using the block to power-up her moves further. Lastly, she created some 1kg iridium spheres that she can load into her air-cannons, increase the weight of her suit to decrease recoil, decrease the weight of the sphere to increase muzzle velocity, fire the air and pellet, and increase the pellet’s mass in the air to create a thousand-pound cannon ball.

Weaknesses
If Bianca sounds incredibly powerful, it is only because she has mastered a quirk that to most would seem fairly weak. Through hard work and creative thinking, she came up with hero gear that perfectly compliment her Quirk to the point that she can’t function without it. Now, to list the limitations of her Quirk:
To start with weaknesses, Bianca’s iridium armor is far more weak than normal when it only weighs 5kg, so she only uses 5kg mode to travel or chase villains. Bianca usually keeps her armor at 50kg where it is safe from being destroyed. However, in 50kg mode she cannot fly using air-jets, only short jumps. She is also far slower and fatigues far more quickly.
A second weakness, Bianca decided against using steel armor because manipulating steel could cause buildings or cars to collapse. She can help rescue operations by clearing away steel debris, but she is generally very cautious to manipulate the mass of anything other than air and the lead/iridium she brings with her.
.
A third weakness, is that Bianca must be aware of the locations of the objects she is manipulating. If she doesn’t know an object’s location or if the location shifts too much, her Homogenous Transfer suddenly fails and reverts to normal. Specifically, if an object she hasn’t touched moves one meter without her knowing, it fails. If an object she has touched moves ten meters without her knowing, it fails.
A fourth weakness, Bianca must know the chemical makeup of the Homogenous object she is trying to manipulate. If she tries to manipulate brass but she thinks it is gold, she will get a headache. If she knows that steel is carbon and iron mixed, she has a 10% error range on the steel/carbon ratio before she gets a headache. The severity of the headache depends on how much mass she tried to shift. By initially trying to transfer a tiny amount, she can test for the steel’s ratio over time by seeing which ratios give her headaches. She can also use this method to determine the composition of any non-biological Homogenous substance in an hour.
Her final and most secret weakness is that she is actually astoundingly weak when she doesn’t have momentum. If you can tie her up or stop her from punching, then she can’t add mass to her swing to get momentum. If energy is mass times velocity, then if you can prevent her from gaining any velocity then it doesn’t matter how much mass she adds, any amount of kilograms times zero meters/second is going to be zero energy.

Bianca has had a goal of becoming a pro hero for a long time with two goals. First, she wants to make enough money so her parents can move back home she can have normal parents. Bianca doesn’t realize that Cassio loves making money, Kimizuki loves helping stop crime, and neither of her parents can stand each other for more than 24 hours. Bianca’s second reason for becoming a hero is to prove that she is cool and decrease the stigma against quirk-marriage babies.
